Alpine Strawberry Flavor-FLV

Been mixing for nearly 11 years now. I’m a strawberry fanatic and I’ve mixed every strawberry flavoring I’ve ever heard of including this one. I wanted to share my thoughts on this one. Way back when FLV first introduced it, I ordered one of these. 15ml, and paid more for it than I usually pay for 120ml of anything else. Even then, I had been mixing long enough to know not to have predispositions or expectations for any flavor, regardless of price. You win some, you lose some. This one is an absolute win. Allow me to help you manage your expectations a little here. Have you ever eaten wild strawberries? No? Move along then. Yes? Keep reading. Ever eaten wild Carpathian Strawberries? Most will say no. That’s okay. Carpathians are a little darker, earthy and less sweet than wild strawberries we are accustomed to. If you’re searching for that perfect, half-apple sized, sweet strawberry, found in a pickup truck bed full of hay, at the end of a gravel road near the highway, while traveling through farmland in the summertime, this ain’t it. If you’re searching for that strawberry to star in your stage production of “It’s a Wonderful Strawberry Shortcake”, this ain’t it. What it IS however, is that nudge that even the best strawberry flavorings need to attain that more natural taste. If you’re looking to grab that essence of real strawberries cut up in that Route 44 Sonic Strawberry Milkshake, add about .25-.5% to a mix. Honestly, I add two tiny drops per 60ml bottle and it’s perfect. Some here haven’t like it. That’s okay. We’re all different. But don’t let that shy you away from this hidden gem. The price of it does a good enough job without all that. Thanks for reading! BCF and William are the best as always!

Super potent strawberry. Very realistic, earthy. .5% Alpine, 5% strawberry ripe, 3% Juicy Strawberry and 2% Shisha Strawberry = amazing strawberry.

A lil bit goes a long way, not sweet, but earthy taste. Pricey but only need a few drops

I finally gave in a couple months ago and I bought a 10ml.... I was very disappointed in my purchase. Yes it goes a very long way, but even when it's properly mixed, it's a very rich, strong tasting strawberry flavor. And I like a strong strawberry flavor, Red Touch is one of my favorite strawberry concentrates. This stuff has a very different, almost dark strawberry taste. Idk what I would even want to mix this with. Save your money, buy FA's Red Touch Strawberry instead!

I bought this based on these review saying my new favorite and after mixing with it now I have to say it's just okay. In some mixes it's not really that good at all.

Very strong and very real

Lovely strawberry extract, the best imo. It's almost like you took a bite of a real wild strawberry and ate a strawberry jam jelly belly jelly bean. It hits on multiple flavor levels, realistic, candy, sugary/syrupy. You cannot substitute this into your strawberry recipes you must build a recipe around this extract. Heres one I like a bit 0.5% alpine strawberry 0.5% wf Tahitian Vanilla, 1.25% hs French vanilla ice cream.

FLV Alpine Strawberry is the best strawberry out there...period! There is a simple reason it costs more...because it is an ultraconcentrate. Flavor is superb compared to every other strawberry out there. Plus I do believe you end up saving money when you consider you only need like 3 drops per 30ml compared to say 10-15% of TFA's strawberries. There is a huge difference between FLV Alpine Strawberry and every other strawberry out there...that being the flavor...OMG. Yes it is that awesome. If you are using this thinking in terms of mixing like you would any other strawberry then you are wasting flavoring. Again think in terms of drops!!!

good strawberry strong i love it
